Tantalum is a rare, high-melting transition metal from the vanadium group. It is similar to niobium and is one of the heavy metals. Pure tantalum has good formability, can be stretched well, and is therefore rolled into sheets and wires. At high temperatures, tantalum reacts with most non-metals. In air, it forms a protective oxide layer. Tantalum is resistant to most acids. Tantalum metal is only soluble in hydrofluoric acid and molten salts.

Tantalum is mainly used in electronics for producing very small, high-performance capacitors. Due to its excellent biocompatibility, tantalum metal is used to manufacture medical implants and instruments. In addition, the metal is used in the chemical industry because of its chemical resistance. To increase the material’s strength at high temperatures, tantalum is used as an alloying additive for nickel-based superalloys.
The main areas of application for tantalum are:
- Microelectronics (manufacturing capacitors);
- Medicine (manufacturing implants and instruments);
- Chemical industry (heat exchangers and pumps);
- Nickel superalloys.
Tantalum is characterized by:
- good formability and stretchability;
- reactivity;
- resistance to most acids;
- stable in air.
